Peter Ketnath was born in Munich, Germany, and studied theatre at the Zinner Studio, in his home town, in 1996. In 1997, he attended the HB-Studio, in New York. Even though he was married to a Brazilian before being cast in Cinema, Aspirins and Vultures, Peter had never worked in Brazil. About this new experience he says: "Making this film was a great landmark in my career as an actor, breaking cultural and linguistic barriers. I made new friends. I met new people. I am very glad to have participated in this film." Highlights of his work in Germany are montages of Tchekhov, Schiller and Goldoni. In the cinema, he participated in the films 'And Nobody Wheeps For Me', by Joseph Vilsmaier and productions for TV France and TV Germany - such as "Minona", by Fabrice Cazeneuve.
